Torban wildly swings at the goblin just north of him, failing to connect.
Seeing Arista give him a wide opening, the Boss stabs down at her, wounding her savagely. (You gave him advantage, which gives him a d4 bump sneak attack thing and he crit and rolled really well on damage. Auto hit, 21 damage, knocking you unconscious.) He picks his bow back up, and cockily fires an arrow at Asariel, but his overconfidence causes him to miss.
A hidden goblin pops out, strikes Mathias for 5 piercing, then successfully ducks behind a tree. Another warrior shoots at Mathias for 3 piercing, and hides.
The hidden warrior near Arista pops out, hits Asariel for 7 damage, and plunges back into cover. The remaining warrior misses Asariel but does not find a good place to hide.
Mathias gets rushed by a smaller goblin with a dagger, who stabs Mathias in the leg for 5 damage.
A minion tries to get through Torban's Armor to no avail, while one of the the goblins on Kaelen nicks him for 4 piercing damage.
You all are up, Arista needs to make a death save, but you can wait and see if another player revives you first.
No new map due to PC issue.
If attacked she planned to use Spiny Shield. It will still hit but not outright down her.
Kaelen tries again to slice through the goblin north of him, going after the goblin to the south if the first one falls.
Action: scimitar to hit 17, damage 6 slashing + 5 force HM. Shortsword to hit nat 20 + 5, damage 8 piercing + 9 force HM and vex if the goblin survives.
Bonus Action: Move Hunter's Mark to closest living goblin.

Arista has 1 hp. I rolled the dice for spiny shield. The goblin boss took damage from "spiny shield" twice as he would not have fired an arrow at Asariel.
Kaelen slays for goblins near him. [[Since you didn't need HM to kill the second goblin, I'll move HM to the nearby Goblin Warrior.]]

As the goblin boss’s blade plunged down, the last fragments of Arista’s shattered ward erupted outward in jagged splinters of rime slashing across his wrist and drawing a startled hiss of pain. Fueled by Brekka’s healing warmth, she surges to her feet, frost coiling once more around her shoulders and swelling into a fresh Armor of Agathys that crackles like breaking ice. Raising her staff, she swings in a sweeping arc—only to strike empty air as the goblin darts aside—but her glacial glare fixes on him, daring his next blow to test the biting cold now cloaking her frame.
Reaction (previous round): Spiny Shield Move: get up, ending prone Bonus: Armor of Agathys Action: swing her Shillelagh, miss with natural 1 Reaction (this round): OA or Protection FS for Brekka (whichever occurs first if at all)
Protection Fighting Style: When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can take a Reaction to interpose your Shield if you’re holding one. You impose Disadvantage on the triggering attack roll and all other attack rolls against the target until the start of your next turn if you remain within 5 feet of the target.
Mathias winces from the goblin's blade piercing his leg before, swinging his staff at the little menace's head.
[[Shillelagh Attack AC 22 for 4 force damage. If another attack looks like it is going to hit Mathias, he will use his reaction to use his free casting of Shield to increase his AC to 21]]
The final minion falls to Asariel's crossbow bolt.
Kaelen sees an arrow whizz by his head, then the warrior near him ducks behind a large rock, out of sight.
Mathias conjures a shield to block a well aimed arrow.
Arista bats away an arrow aimed at Brekka (Protection). The warrior in front of Brekka attacks with a shortsword but can't find a gap in Brekka's Armor.
The Goblin boss makes a clumsy stab at Brekka, but follows it up with such a well timed blow you almost think it was intentional. (10 damage)(rolled a 1 and a 20)
You all are up, there isn't a big change on the mao, just a dead minion by Mathias.

Arista pivots and her frost‑rimmed quarterstaff whips up in a brutal overhead arc toward the goblin bosses’s skull, the air crackling as it cuts through the torch‑light.
Action: attack GB with enhanced quarterstaff, hits AC 14 for 11 damage Reaction: Protection FS for Brekka or OA, whichever triggers first.
(I feel I should point out that, once triggered, the Protection FS is active until the start of Arista's next turn and not just for one attack.)
Having had more luck with his crossbow than magic, Asariel will fire another bolt, this time at the leader. 17to hit for 4damage. (once we level up, his fighting style will completely change and he will actually be melee)
Mathias moves to engage one of the goblin warriors, again swinging his primally enhanced staff.
[[Move 1 square NW then two W. Shillelagh Attack hits AC 23 for 10 Force Damage. If an attack looks like it will hit him, Mathias will use his reaction to cast shield using a spell slot.]]
Mathias crushes the head of the archer furthest to the right, while Asariel's bolt strikes the boss in the shoulder. The goblin boss knocks Arista's blow aside with his shield.
Waiting on Brekka and Kaelen.

Brekka reels from the hit from the goblin leader in front of him, trying to push through the pain of the wound. He strikes back with his sword, but it is a weak blow.
((Action: Longsword at the goblin boss. Attack: 13. Damage: 7 (I forgot he has Savage Attacker so can roll damage twice and take either result, although I'm fairly sure this is a miss anyway)
For next round, could he hit the goblin boss and the warrior attacking him with his breath weapon 30 foot cone?))
"Menekülj a démonok elől"shouts the boss, and he and the remaining warrior slip out of combat and start booking it north through the forest, they are currently about 30 feet away, in difficult terrain and half cover.
"He's just shouting an order to run away like the cowards they are," says Torban. Then to the fleeing goblins, he says "Mondd el barátaidnak, hogy új banda van a városban!"
If attacked she planned to use Spiny Shield. It will still hit but not outright down her.

Brekka charges up beside Arista and reaches down a large hand to heartily pat her on the back.
"Up you get!"
A golden light glows around his hand before suffusing into Arista and knitting some of her wounds together.
He then turns his attention to the goblin that almost bright her down. He swings his sword, but is off balance and it goes wide.
BA: Lay on Hands to Arista for 10 healing.
Action: Longsword attack at the goblin north of Arista. Attack: 6 (natural 1)
Torban kills another minion.
Mathias, Arista, and Asariel are up.

It is a miss, and yes, that breath weapon would work in the current positions.
Kaelen takes out the Goblin warrior.
Torban, swinging his halberd in a huge arc, kills the goblin near Mathias, and leaves the one in front of Brekka severely wounded.
